Warner earning incentives as Cardinals win
Published: December 13th, 2008 | Tags: Arizona Cardinals, Kurt Warner
When Arizona beat St. Louis last Sunday, it locked up the NFC West title for the Cardinals and a $500,000 incentive for their quarterback Kurt Warner.
Warner’s contract calls for him to earn a $500,000 incentive if the Cardinals play on wild-card weekend and a $1 million incentive for the Cardinals to play on divisional-playoff weekend.
Warner also could make $1.5 million for playing in the NFC Championship Game, $2 million for playing in the Super Bowl and $3 million for winning the Super Bowl.
But the Cardinals capped out his incentives at $2.5 million, so some of the other ones would become moot points if Arizona can keep winning.
